Lulzbot TAZ 5 .35mm nozzle Slic3r Config for nGen

Poked around and couldn’t find a profile for TAZ 5 .35mm nozzle. And per support, Slic3r isn’t supported. So I started with my .22mm PLA profile and mixed in:

  1. the “medium” TAZ 6 Cura profile[1]
  2. some specs from the colorfabb site for bridging [2]
  3. a .35mm Cura profile from the forum [3] to create a new profile

What I did not do was:

  • modify the filament diameter
  • modify flow rate (I run at 99%)

It’s printing now, so we’ll see if it works out. Printing without any PVE (forgot, shrug), 230C hot end, 85C bed.

Will reply back with how it went. Profile attached

Print turned out fine, though it was small. Takes forever… ugg. I printed without infill. Don’t recommend. For this model it didn’t matter but even with 5 top layers it wasn’t quite right. I removed the skirt before taking the pic. I did the 250mm minimum length. Way too long, I’ll drop it back 3 loops (my PLA default) and maybe add minimum 50mm.

Updated config attached. Can’t remember what infill pattern was, it’s now Rectilinear.
